A lot of pearl clutching and vapors over at FN this morning.

Real serious looking analists saying the trade war is going to kill us all.

The Chinese and the Europeans need US more than we need them and they know it.
It’s about time we had an American President that acts like a President of the United States of America instead of President of the New World Order.

I hope the Chinese stop taking USA pork ( Smithfield is owned by the Chinese) Should help Bacon prices in the USA. The bulk Bacon I like at the local Stator Bros Market used to be $3.99 lb, less on Sale. Now $5.99 is the normal price with the rare sale down to $4.99. initially the price increases was blamed on the the virus which was killing piglets about five years back. The price never came back down. More supply should help that.

Neil Cavuto is a never Trumper establishment spokesperson.

Charlie Gasparino is simply anti-Trump. No other way to see it.

What Free Traitors™ don’t want you to know is the there is a domestic market for all the products we ship overseas. That means a boon for the consumer. Bacon is a good example.

Tons of doomsday and "omg prices going up" on twitter as well.

Please all move, Liberals. So tired of you.

Certainly you don't think that U.S. pork producers will continue to produce the bacon the Chinese won't buy?

“It’s about time we had an American President that acts like a President of the United States of America instead of President of the New World Order.”

Amen to that.

The reports now are the Chinese targeted cheese to hurt Paul Ryan and something in Florida to hurt Rubio.

Did the Dems collude with China on which products to target? I would be surprised if they didn’t actually.

Either way, I’m going to take a look at the list and see if I can support any of these American industries. Call it a reverse boycott.

patience will be paramount. we will need a few months to a few years to get our local industries back up and running at speed. of course, the America last’ers will be screaming at the top of their lungs trying to get the President to lose his nerve until that happens.

Our industries are currently up and running just fine. The current unemployment rate is at or nearly at full employment.

In many areas there are not workers for available jobs.

Canada is doing the same thing...targeting products from certain states...meeting with Dem politicians first.
Also, I just bought a number of small items; had a choice between China goods or US...I paid an extra $2, but it felt good.

Well, it’s not like they can stockpile the hogs until a more
favorable market arises. Gotta love perishables. ;)

The problem is that many American employees think that they are married to their employers — they are reluctant to look for a better-paying job.

I dont get that part either but we are all wired differently. However, I have spoken to a lot of people and the ONLY thing they are afraid of losing are their benefits. I’m self employed and dont like taking orders from someone I know Im smarter than. God knows how many asshole bosses and office managers I worked for I knew were stupid and clueless on their jobs...
